each students in a class of 40 studies atleast one of the subjects eng,math and economics. 16 study english, 22 study economics,and 26 math,5 study economics and english,14 maths and economics and 2 eng.eco and math.find the number of students who study (1.) eng and maths (2.) english,maths but not eco
let x denote the number of students having MATHS+ENGLISH NOT ECO
and total students = 40
only english = 11-x
only maths = 12-x
only eco. = 5
(11 - x) + x + (12 - x) + 2 + 3 + 12 + 5 = 40
=> -x + 45 = 40
=> x = 5
therefore, MATHS+ENGLISH-ECONOMICS = 5
and number of students of ENGLISH+MATHS = x+2 = 7
